Airbnb warned people heading to Washington, D.C., to participate in this weekend's white nationalist Unite the Right rally that the company may cancel their reservations and remove their accounts if they are caught violating Airbnb's policies.

The company said in a statement to ABC News that it will take “appropriate action” if it identifies users who are “pursuing behavior on the Airbnb platform that would be antithetical to the Airbnb Community Commitment.”

Airbnb says all of its users are required to agree to its Community Commitment, which includes treating "everyone in the Airbnb community — regardless of their race, religion, national origin, ethnicity, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, or age — with respect, and without judgment or bias."

The upcoming rally, which will take place near the White House at Lafayette Square, is being organized by the people who planned last year's deadly Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va.
